Zimbabwe's NSSA plans to deduct foreign currency from underpaid civil servants' salaries, drawing criticism from the PTUZ for lacking consultation.
Zimbabwe's National Social Security Authority (NSSA) is planning to deduct foreign currency dues from underpaid civil servants, exacerbating their financial strain. Already receiving a reduced net salary of US$270, NSSA has reportedly ordered the Salaries Services Bureau (SSB) to deduct US$10 per month from each civil servant, retroactive to January 2024. This move has been criticized as unjust and illegal by the Progressive Teachers Union of Zimbabwe (PTUZ), who emphasized that no consultation with unions took place.
